rich 1.0 Bryan Kohberger's own defense team raised a concern about their client with the judge weeks before he pleaded guilty to four murders, and that filing is now public. The sealed May 20, 2025 memo, unsealed on September 22, 2026, shows Anne Taylor's team asked for more time to investigate Kohberger himself, not just the evidence. They also wanted expert assistance communicating with him about how the case could end. Judge Steven Hippler said no on June 26, 2025, and Kohberger pleaded guilty on July 2. His new lawyer, Greg Rauch, argues Hippler knew about the problem and took the plea anyway, and he's seeking Hippler's removal and a path to withdraw the plea. The state points to the moment Kohberger told the court he was pleading freely. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains how prosecutors defend a plea against a memo written by the defendant's own lawyers.
